Overview
The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 dawned what Francis Fukuyama called āThe End of History.ā Three decades later, Jim Sciutto said on CNNās air as the Ukraine war began, that we are living in a ā1939 moment.ā History never endedāit barely pausedāand the global order as we long have known it is now gone. Powerful nations are determined to assert dominance on the world stage. And as their push for power escalates, a new order will affect everyone across the globe. Russiaās invasion of Ukraine is a part of it, but in reality, this power struggle impacts every corner of our worldāfrom Helsinki to Beijing, from Australia to the North Pole. This is a battle with many fronts: in the Arctic, in the oceans and across the skies, on man-made islands and redrawn maps, and in tech and cyberspace.
Ā
Through globe-spanning, exclusive interviews with dozens of political, military, and intelligence leaders, Sciutto defines our times as a return of great power conflict, āa definitive break between the postāCold War era and an entirely new and uncertain one.ā With savvy, thorough, in-person reporting, he follows-up his 2019 bestseller, The Shadow War: Inside Russiaās and China's Secret Operations to Defeat America, which focused on the covert tactics of a hidden conflict.

The Return of Great Powers analyzes a historic and visible shift in real time. It details the realities of this new postāpostāCold War era, the increasingly aligned Russian and Chinese governments, and the flashpoint of a new, global nuclear arms race. And it poses a question: As we consider uncertain, even terrifying, outcomes, will it be possible for the West and Russia and China to prevent a new World War?
